"We had our roof, skylights, soffits, rakes, fascia, and gutters replaced and are extremely satisfied. From the sales process with Chad M, to the quality control perfection by Chad G, to the absolute superb attention to detail by Jesse and the soffit team, every step was extraordinary. Top-notch communications. Top-notch attention to detail. They treated my home as if it were their own and that is very rare by contractors today. Too many are quick to move on to the next job. These guys know their craft, and know how to work with and treat a customer with courtesy and respect. Thank you All Craft for being such a great option in the Rochester area. I highly recommend All Craft Exteriors!"
"An inspection (by a third party) of my fireplace and chimney revealed that they were broken front to back and top to bottom. Unrepairable. Hired Amadore. They came quickly, did the demo on the fireplace/chimney.
This involved a lot of work. The original install involved brick, and two different types of concrete blocks. The chimney had been leaking rainwater, so there was rot also.
In two weeks they demo'd it. Replaced sheathing and shingles on the roof, rotten trusses and studs, rotten bottom and top plates. Brought all up to code. Replaced the back deck, beyond code. The jointing on the deck was superb, made me think of a Mississippi Steamer deck. The pillars brought to mind a Antebellum Southern Mansion and an Old West Fortress. Excellent!
My neighbors complimented them on little disruption there was during the work. And they adjusted their hours to fit my work schedule. I have to be in Chicago (300 miles) every morning at 0700, thus I go to bed between 3, and 4pm.
Wonderful"
"I’m absolutely thrilled with the work done by the roofing contractor! They completed my entire roof project with exceptional professionalism and attention to detail. They also expertly installed a skylight and patched the surrounding drywall, finishing it seamlessly to match the existing texture. On top of that, they provided a convenient dumpster service, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend their services!"
"The guys did a great job with my window replacement project. The 3 installers worked efficiently as a team which I always appreciate. Window look great both inside and outside."
"Erie Home Basement Solutions was a pleasure to work with. Everyone was on time, and always polite and courteous throughout this process. This is extremely hard work and they continued to always have a smile on their face and answer any questions I had. They worked diligently to complete the project on time and fulfilled all aspects of the contract. Actually, they went above and beyond to make sure I was pleased with their service, which is unusual in todayâ s work culture. I would highly recommend this company for your basement waterproofing needs."
The ideal color for your roof depends entirely on your preference. If you’re looking for something classic, gray, brown, and black will rarely steer you wrong. A roof with a pop of color like green or red can be sophisticated and elegant when paired with the right colored siding. Decide what vibe you’re looking for and choose a color palette that suits you.
Using a staple gun to hang Christmas lights on your roof or shingles is not recommended. Puncturing your roof with staples can cause damage, leading to cracks, leaks, and exposure to the elements. Staples are also less reliable than other methods like roof clips. For a safer alternative that won't damage your roof, use shingle tabs.
It’s possible to install your chimney cap in some areas, but it’s usually better to hire a professional. Before you attempt a DIY chimney cap installation, check to see if your local building department requires a permit. If it does, you should hire a professional to pull the permit and complete the work for you. Even if you don’t need a permit, getting up on your roof is dangerous, especially if you have an aggressive pitch or slippery roof material, like metal. Hiring a chimney professional guarantees the job is done correctly and keeps you safe from injury.
You can put new shingles over old shingles, but most municipalities only allow for two layers of shingles before you have to rip off the old roof and start fresh. In some areas, only a single layer of shingles is allowed due to the weight a bundle of shingles adds to your structure. In most cases, it’s a good idea to remove your old shingles before you install new shingles, especially if you suspect that a roof leak may have compromised the decking underneath.
Yes, a new roof will add value to your home, often providing a return on investment (ROI) of between 60% and 70%. Not only will a new roof boost curb appeal, but savvy homebuyers will also know that a new roof means they won’t have to worry about roof leaks and related damage for years after closing. They’ll also know that they’ll save money by potentially having decades before they need to worry about paying for repairs or replacement.
